m3 mirror wiring :S

[crl016]

Good afternoon to all!!

I would like to ask you the following:

I've bought a pair of m3 mirrors from ebay to intstall them on my corsa C. they are electric with indicator. the problem is how do I have to make them fit instead my orig mirrors. my car is already equipped with electric mirror and therefore there is no need to add switches and connectors. I've cut the original connector to make it on these after market ones. the colours (f the wire) of the m3 mirrors are yellow, green, white and black while those on the plug are green yellow brown and 2 black. I tried to test with a multimeter for volatges etc... but I finished up by making it move only on the right. Any suggestion please?

was there no plug in connecter if not, just play with them until you get it right, it will only blow a fuse at the most, your indecator will haft to be wired into the side repeator

[Sharky_poolking]

does anyone know if you need a 3 or 4 wire mirrors set for a preface lift.

[crl016]

Infact.. I went to try those and finishes up by blowing up another fuse :P .. my mirror wires are different and btw mine is a prefacelift corsa. wires which come outseide from my mirror are yellow, green white and black. there is no red..

[Pauly_boi]

yellow shud be the red

[crl016]

gonna check it out and reply asap

[crl016]

no success :( ... it doesn't move up, but it moves from right to left and vice versa.. there is still a black wire coming from the original plug left, whenever I try to short it with another pair the fuse is blowing, or the mirrors will not work well. btw I have 5 wires coming from the connector while the mirror have 4 wires.

[Pauly_boi]

got the same with dtm mirrors, except i got 3 wires.
i just push them to how i want them.

So there is no way to make them working well? they're abit hard to move them manually with the risk of making damage to them :/
